Preserving the Texas Sky

As the song goes, “The stars at night, are big and bright, Deep in the heart of Texas”.

In the Texas Hill Country, preservation of the natural night sky is important to all who live here.  There are organizations such as the International Dark Sky Association who are dedicated to protecting our beautiful Texas sky by spreading awareness of being Dark Sky compliant.

What is dark sky compliant? It’s a campaign to help reduce the amount of light pollution. Light pollution is wasted energy in the form of artificial light that impairs the ability to see the night sky. By using the right fixtures, bulbs, and controlling where the light goes, we can decrease the light pollution our lighting systems emit.

Several cities in Texas regulate outdoor lighting with city ordinances. When you work with one of our lighting designers at Texas Outdoor Lighting, they will be knowledgeable about your city ordinance, if applicable, and can show you how you can have the light you desire while not adding to the light pollution or hindering your view of the stars. Texas Outdoor Lighting designs, installs and maintains our lighting systems which are all 100% LED and dark sky friendly. We have a line of our own fixtures that are Made in The USA that carry a lifetime warranty.

Call Texas Outdoor Lighting today to schedule a consultation with one of our designers. Don’t let your city ordinances or your love of the stars at night keep you from having a beautifully lit home. You can have a beautifully designed lighting system in your outdoor living space while enjoying the bug and bright stars, Deep in the heart of Texas!
